No doubt you probably have seen most \u2013 if not all \u2013 of the fun photos from Chris Christie<\/strong> shamelessly enjoying New Jersey\u2019s Island Beach State Park as his own private paradise for the Fourth of July weekend, while denying access to other Jerseyans. \u00a0(I Googled it \u2013 that\u2019s what they\u2019re called.)<\/em>\u00a0 But I felt it\u2019d be good if we preserved that meme for posterity.<\/p>\n

To remind you what the Christie Klan<\/span> clan decided they \u2013 and they alone<\/em> \u2013 were entitled to \u2026<\/p>\n

[NOTE<\/strong><\/span>: You can right-click or scroll-click a photo to open\u00a0it\u00a0as a\u00a0full-sized photo in a separate Tab]<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course you knew it would give rise to some great memes, so let\u2019s enjoy a few:<\/p>\n

Keying in on his role in Bridgegate<\/em><\/strong>, here he is blocking a couple lanes of traffic on the George Washington Bridge<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Since it was a holiday, he felt entitled to take time for some fun.\u00a0 Here he is clearly enjoying listening to Elvis<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It appears he really does like going to the movies \u2026<\/p>\n

Sound of Music<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

From Here to Eternity<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Planet of the Apes<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Jaws<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Up <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Forrest Gump<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But it wasn\u2019t all fun and games.\u00a0 He was busy keeping an eye on developments at D-Day<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

And helping out in the Oval Office (I’m sure he figured that if Kellyanne Conway<\/strong><\/em> can put her feet up on the couch, he can bring a beach chair in)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But that wasn\u2019t the only the only time with Twitler<\/em><\/strong>.\u00a0 He \u201cgrabbed\u201d<\/em><\/strong> some more time with him, along with Billy Bush<\/strong> and Arianne Zucker,<\/strong> during that infamous X-rated Access Hollywood interview (no doubt loaded down with plenty of Tic Tacs)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And he was there in the Situation Room helping Pres. Obama<\/strong> and Hillary<\/strong> when they masterminded the removal of Osama Bin Laden<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Not surprising that most Jerseyans were NOT pleased that he had created a private island paradise for just him and his family \u2013 so they took to the air to share their displeasure<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And you would think that being such a shameless, self-absorbed A-hole would make Christie feel repentant \u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But you\u2019d be wrong.\u00a0 Just like Twitler, this is how he sees himself<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But Jerseyans had the last laugh when The Bikini Boys<\/em><\/strong> did a great sand sculpture of him on July 4th<\/sup><\/p>\n

There’s an Instagram by them doing a 360 degrees around the sculpture.\u00a0 And apparently the link to it embeds Instagram stuff – never tried it before:<\/p>\n
